EDUCATIONAL ACTIVITIES

This section of the website is for
teachers, students, and persons who wish to learn a little about archaeology,
the Apollo Program, and lunar geology. Each section on the tool bar on the left
provides information for teachers who wish to utilize all or part of the
information contained therein to organize and create lectures and classroom
exercises on the topics covered. Students who wish to learn about these
subjects on their own can look through all the materials provided and even try
to complete the classroom exercises themselves.

A tutorial is provided with each section. The tutorials
are a general description of the topics covered and can be used as the template
for a class lecture outline. Each section also contains a list of web links and
suggested readings that will significantly add to the overall understanding of
the topics. Also included is a link to printable classroom exercises that will
help enforce the information learned during the lecture.

The vocabulary section is provided to assist in learning
technical and professional words and terms. In each tutorial, there are some
words colored blue. These words are located in the vocabulary section.
Clicking on one of these words with the mouse will instantly move the webpage
down to that word in the vocabulary section. Not all the words in the
vocabulary section can be found in the tutorial section. There are more words
in the vocabulary section to assist in the understanding of words and terms one
might come across while reading though the information contained in the web
links and suggested readings provided.

We hope that in providing this information to teachers,
students, and the general public, we inspire interest in the space sciences and
the social sciences. The exploration of spacein our history, our present, and
our futureis an endeavor that has always been multidisciplinary. Professionals
who have degrees in many different fields and sub-fields have contributed much
to the exploration and understanding of our universe. Will you one day
contribute to this body of knowledge?
